Maine

[UA66]

This game may be as tough as Hartford. It is a long drive and a long time to be sitting on your fanny feeling your muscles atrophy. Despite that, there is plenty of reason to be optimistic. This team has learned to win the tough games and to win on the road, something that they were not able to do in the past, mostly due to lack of team depth. Not only do they have the depth now but have also developed the mental toughness to win no matter the circumstances. Still wish they would continue to pound opponents into submission when playing with a large lead rather than letting up on the gas petal.

 

Any update on the welfare of Brent and Brian?

I guess Brian's good to go and Channel News 9 has Coach Brown listing Brent as "questionable" for the game.

Questionable is better than it sounded the other night and hopefully if he's not back on Saturday he will be against VCU. I would guess Levi would get the start in his place?

Tomorrows game is extremely important much more so than VCU - we have an opportunity to win a regular season conference championship and the race is as tight as it gets.

 

The Bracketbuster is great for national exposure and the administration it means very little for anything else at this time.

I don't think DP was inscinutating that Coach Brown keep Brent out of the Maine game so he can play against VCU. With a concussion its probably best that he did sit out the Maine game and if he can be ready to go for VCU then great. Also, from where I sit a win over VCU is needed for Albany to even be considered for the NIT if we lose in the tournament.

[Dane Pound]

You're right Voice. I meant it as more of a timetable. If he's questionable after two days hopefully with nearly a week off he will be 100%. No question about holding him out of Bracketbusters if there is any doubt. Conference games are the most important ones although the VCU game is fun for the fans.

News reports make it a game-time decision on Brent, tho I wouldn't let hiim go if he's still having headaches on Friday. Cause of the concussion was an Adeleke elbow to Brent's temple at the end of the 1st half.

Danes eye sixth win in a row - Albany Times-Union

 

Also, Virginia Commonwealth will be on ESPN2 vs. ODU at 6:00 tonight

Nice win - 87-73. Nice long ride home. K-zo career high.

Now lets hope that Bing loses to either BU, Hartford, or both so we can clinch against UVM.

alum73,

 

Thanks for the info.

 

Now we don't have to hear anything more from those who detract from our program. We have a guaranteed winning season. We have now accomplished something. We no longer have to hear that we never have had a winning season, nor have accomplished something. (Yes, I know I'm repeating myself.)

[alum73]

every win a new all-time div 1 record. This is fun!

Don't bet on it - haven't had a 20-win season (yet), haven't won a championship (yet) even in a weak conference, haven't won an NCAA game (yet) - you know the drill.
